note to anyone who is going--you can get some dirt-cheap fares on southwest airlines if you're willing to take the bus into town from BWI. it's not a bad bus ride, and it's worth it for cheaper plane fares.
another note to anyone who is going--right now, hotel prices on
hotels.com are ten bucks a night cheaper than the advertised con-block rate. as such, it's probably a good idea to book there now instead of holding out for a special con-block room.
